Dr. Daniel Schneider - Senior Research Advisor

Small town fan Dr. Schneider is an Assistant Professor at University of Wisconsin at La Crosse and specializes in early-modern philosophical thought. He has held numerous academic posts around the world: He was a post doc at Ghent University in Belgium, and a lecturer at Cambridge University, and at the University of Haifa in Israel. He is working with the Institute for Digital Humanities because he believes enlightenment theories of epistemology, politics, and humanity can help solve many of the “new” ethical, social, and political problems of the use of big data in the contemporary digital world.
